Activity Description

Ymittos is a mountain in Attica. It is located on the east side of the Athens Basin. It rises between the Athenian basin and the Mediterranean with a north-to-south direction from the passage of Agios Ioannis the Hunter, ending over Voula and Vari.

It has large areas of greenery, with its highest peak reaching 1026 m. Geologically, Hymettus belongs to the Atticocycladic zone. Its rocks contain limestone, slate and large masses of marble and marble slabs.

Remarkable natural monuments of Ymittos are the many caves formed on its slopes. One of them is the Bat Cave which we will visit and include horizontal and easy caves. Great for our little friends who will live a unique exploration experience!
